Abstract: A circuit board comprising a composite resin (1) and a metal plate (3) having a circuit pattern. A copper or copper alloy plate exhibiting excellent thermal conductivity is preferably employed as the metal plate. The composite resin is made of 70-95 parts by weight of inorganic filler and 5-30 parts by weight of resin composition containing a thermosetting resin and a setting agent. At least one side, joined with the composite resin, of the metal plate is subjected to surface roughening and adhesion enhancement. In the circuit board, the composite resin enters the gap between the circuit patterns, and the composite resin composition and the metal plate form a plane on the side of the metal plate where a component is mounted. Since the resin composition containing the inorganic filler is also present between the circuit patterns formed of the metal plate, the heat dissipation characteristic of the circuit board is enhanced significantly, and a circuit board suitable for an electronic apparatus containing a heat generating component, e.g. a power circuit, is produced.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for thermally tempering glass panes with a low probability of failure when subjected to mechanical and thermal stress, particularly in the case of fire. The glass pane is heated in the middle of the pane to a temperature greater than the transformation temperature (Tg) and in the outer surfaces to a temperature greater than the Littleton temperature or softening temperature (TEW) of the glass material that forms the glass pane. The glass pane is then cooled by intensively cooling its outer surfaces so that it has, at an ambient temperature (Tamb), a permanent compressive stress in its outer surfaces. It has been shown that glass panes tempered by a simple thermal tempering can be produced while using the inventive method that, compared to glass panes that have been subjected to a simple thermal tempering according to conventional methods, have a lower probability of failure in the case of fire and a higher mechanical and thermal resistance.

Abstract: An image processing system in which sets of image elements having display values outside of a target range B of display values are each respectively morphologically dilated. The intersection between the morphologically dilated sets of image elements is then identified and those image elements within the intersecting region are removed from the set of image elements having the target range B of display values. This removes image elements incorrectly appearing to have display values corresponding to the target range B of display values due to aliasing effects between regions of image elements having display values either side of the target range B of image values. The imaging may be two-dimensional or three-dimensional imaging. The morphological dilatation is preferably performed with a quasi-circular or a quasi-spherical structuring element having a radius of between two and three voxels.

Abstract: A process for producing ammonium thiosulfate by contacting a feed gas containing hydrogen sulfide and ammonia with an aqueous absorbing stream containing ammonium sulfite and ammonium bisulfite to form an ammonium thiosulfate-containing solution; the absorption being controlled by monitoring the oxidation reduction potential of the absorbing stream and varying the feed rates in response to the oxidation reduction potential measurements. An ammonium bisulfide-containing aqueous stream is contacted with and absorbs sulfur dioxide to form an aqueous stream containing the ammonium sulfite and ammonium bisulfite reagents. This sulfite/bisulfite-containing stream is combined with the ammonium thiosulfate-containing solution in a vessel to produce a combined solution. A portion of the combined solution is recycled back to contact the feed gas and ammonium thiosulfate is recovered from the remaining portion of the combined solution.

Abstract: The cells of a memory cell array are programmed and read in a pair wise manner. The pairs are separated by at least one memory cell, reducing the possibility of interference between the pairs during programming and reading. The memory cells are programmed individually by applying a relatively high voltage to one of the bit lines of each cell regardless whether the cells are to be programmed or not, while applying a lower voltage to the second bit lines, depending on whether the cells are to be programmed or not. This programming voltage assignment enhances the speed of programming. Furthermore, the pair wise programming scheme applies the necessary high voltages only half as often as in previous schemes to program all the cells of the array, increasing the lifetime of the memory system.

Abstract: A pneumatic device for pivoting a pivotal component is articulated to a structural element by means of a joint. Hoses produced from a material of low ductility, to which compressed air can be admitted, are inserted between the pivotal component and the structural element. The hoses contain an airtight bag. When these bags are inflated via valves, compressive forces act both on the structural element and on the pivotal component, causing the latter to swivel out. In order that the hoses cannot migrate, webs run from the joint to the hoses. In order to relieve the hoses in a specific limit position of the pivotal component and to prevent oscillatory movements of the pivotal component, a locking device is provided. The locking device includes a rod, which runs through a brake device fixed to an arm.
